I don't know if this is possible, but I figured I'd ask.
After my electron app opens a browser window and is displaying some icon in the taskbar and in its title bar for the window, can I change one or both of those icons while the browser is open? I suspect the answer is a hard no, but I thought it'd be cool if I could make it react in some way.
The search terms I came up with were mostly leading me to answers for how to change the icon before the window is open.
